Virtual Real Estate Sales: Make Money In Real Life and Second Life

Virtual real estate is an exciting new high profit business that is creating millionaires out of gamers and real estate agents.

Can you actually make money selling something that isn't real? That's the idea behind the builders and realtors selling in a virtual world known as Second Life. The online virtual world is filled with properties that are only limited by the imagination. Some real, pardon the punn, realtors are turning to this business as a real way to make millions.

Second Life is not the only platform to make money selling virtual real estate, you can choose Entropia Universe to make money from real estate also. Although this is a little different than traditional real estate sales, you will likely need a good understanding of virtual real estate construction and predicting the potential profit of virtual real estate properties to make the most money..

Gamers are likely to be the real winners of real money in the virtual real estate market. They posses the unique skills and knowledge of virtual real estate construction that is needed to develop properties into such detailed and enormous creations that people are willing to pay top dollar for something that doesn't exist in reality.

The kid who everyone thinks won't amount to anything has actually been honing his skills for this opportune moment, when the virtual world becomes a lucrative playground. One recent sale netted a gamer roughly $500,000.00 in profits. That's right, he bought the property at 100,000 dollars and "virtually flipped" it, building on what was already there, for a huge half million dollar revenue.  His creation is called Club Neverdie.

We've heard enough about the financial crisis.  Appearantly this recession has not afflicted the virtual quite the same.  In a virtual world where anything goes and you can buy virtually buy anything you want, some are cashing in on millions of real dollars in this unreal opportunity.

Realtors are taking the "real" out of the estate business. Usually known for keeping it real, at least real profitable, realtors have found a new way to make money without needing to have perfect teeth. They are now selling fake real estate in the virtual world known as Second Life.

In the recent downturn of real estate profits many realtors are staying busy with other marketable ideas. Some realtors refuse to get a real job. Take these items for example, and their new "real" estate business.

A perfect example of realtors "keepin it real." People are glued to their televisions each evening watching reality tv shows. No one seems to like the fake shows any more. America is crying out "I don't want to watch the news, I want to watch reality shows." I'm still not sure what was so fake about t.v. before reality shows saved us all? Americans would rather watch a reality show about a news team than actually watch the news, I guess Americans really want the real thing.

Realtors had a great idea with this one. They came up with product called a real girl, but they trick you because they are actually fake girls. Check out the real interesting story made into a movie about a guy named Lars who got a "real" girl. Isn't it ironic, guys don't seem to mind so much about fake parts on real girls, nor do they mind fake parts on real girls. Did I just repeat myself?

• You get that great sense of ownership with out all the responsibility of real estate.
• You can make millions in RL
• No STD's
  
• Brain damage is thrown in as an added bonus (read on)
  

If you think you might want to invest in some virtual real estate, luckily you have some options. Historically, you would pay someone a monthly fee to allow you to live in their building for an agreed upon amount of time, usually a year. This is called renting an apartment. As fake as renting an apartment is, now you have an even better option.

You can pay and rent fake estate in a virtual world where you can't actually put any of your stuff. If you haven't heard of it, it's called Second Life. You can buy land and build; you can even buy your own island. The great thing is that you get to pay someone a monthly fee, so it still feels like real life. Hopefully they make sure to add illnesses, pollution, traffic, and criminals. I am sure the government will tax you in your virtual world eventually. Sorry teens, I guess you still don't get treated like an adult even when buying fake estate. "Note: If you wish to buy a Private Region and you are a Teen Second Life Resident, you may not use the Land Store. You must complete the Special Region Order process." The rules are pretty complicated, but I don't think buying fake estate is even close to as complicated as buying real estate.

The research is coming in linking brain damage to too much online activities. I need to add this disclaimer. Buying fake estate could give you brain damage. Apearantly online social activities can make people moody, and people with autism seem to like hanging out online.

I am sure the data is correlational, so it makes you wonder if the people who are already brain damages, moody, etc, choose to spend more time social networking, etc. T.V. is mentioned to be just as bad. Read the links for yourself. This is the end of my hub because I just had a mood swing due to being online too long. I am TOO ANGRY TO GO ON!
